Patchwork • Nighean Dhòmhnaill Riabhaich (The Jealous Sister)
Ballads on the theme of the jealous sister are common in many Northern European languages. In this Scottish Gaelic version, a woman calls from the shore where her sister has taken her to drown. “Oh, do you not have pity on me?” asks the woman of her sister, “They will find me drowned, with my brown hair floating on the top of the sea.”
Live in concert at the Bus Stop Theatre in Halifax, Nova Scotia in November 2017.
